Updates were made to the following sections. The changes are explained below.
Section 6.0, Apache HTTP Server was updated to describe key considerations for using Apache 2 on Novell Open Enterprise Server 11 and later servers.
When you install OES services on the server, Novell-ready versions of Apache 2 HTTP Server software (Prefork, 64-bit) and Tomcat 6 are automatically installed. Apache and the OES Welcome website are automatically configured for non-secure port 80 and secure port 443. The Apache HTTP Server daemon (httpd2) starts automatically on server restart.
To set up personalized websites, you must manually create a virtual host configuration file for each website. Templates for secure SSL virtual host and non-secure virtual host configuration files are available in the /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/ directory. Use a text editor to create or modify the configuration files, then gracefully restart the Apache daemon (rcapache2 graceful) to apply the changes.
WARNING:Do not install the SUSE Linux Web and Lamp Server pattern. Do not use the HTTP Server option in YaST to manage Apache or virtual host settings on an OES server. It overwrites essential OES settings for Apache and breaks the existing setup. For recovery information, see Section 6.4.1, Apache Server Errors after Using the HTTP Server Option in YaST.
Beginning with OES 11 SP2, there is no active development or enhancement to Archive and Version Services, and support will be limited to security fixes. You can continue to use AV resources with Novell Cluster Services.
Section A.0, Comparing Novell Cluster Services for Linux and NetWare was relocated to this guide from the OES 11 SP3: Novell Cluster Services for Linux Administration Guide.
Section B.0, Comparing Resources Support for Linux and NetWare was relocated to this guide from the OES 11 SP3: Novell Cluster Services for Linux Administration Guide.
